Thank you for the responses. The python code does a lot of processing, so I 
need to make sure the application is scalable, and as price-sensitive is 
possible (if my concern is valid). So I'm looking for any way that I can 
allow the client to process the code. So I am trying to figure if possible 
to import the script from the controller to a page somehow.

What I meant by "embedding as JS":

If the Python is embedded as converted JavaScript (in the view as 
{{=python}}), would it not be processed by the client? I certainly do not 
assume this to be a viable method. So is there any other way for client 
processing (e.g. loading/accessing the python functions from a view 
(converted to JS or otherwise))?
